Rockies Take 10-2 Pounding
|
The Colorado Rockies took it on the chin, losing, 10-2, to the Chicago Cubs. Alfredo Cortez, who is tied for 5th in the NL with a 10.2 K/9 rate, pitched a strong game for Chicago. The second-place Cubs improved to 89-67.
Hector Naranjo had a big 3-run home run for the Cubs in the bottom of the second inning. With Chicago leading 3-1 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he sized up a fastball from Ricky Acosta, who finished 2nd in the NL in wins with 17 in 2105, and punished it. The result was his 13th home run of the season, which put the Cubs on top, 6-1.
"I think every team will tell you that the pitching sets the tone, especially the starters," said Chicago skipper Vin Calia.
